Thanksgiving Science

Hey guys!
Think Thanksgiving is only eating and more eating?  Well, there is quite a lot of work that happens before the noshing.  Check out this article by Thomas Humphrey to learn about what factors need to be taken account when you double the weight of a turkey.  Can you apply this knowledge to anything else?  Give it a try and let us know.  I'm always available for taste testing, too!
